Harrison and I worked together after college for the Saint Louis Development Corporation. His bright and joyful spirit were irresistable. He was extremely generous with his time and helped introduce me to the world of architecture. Harrison was a great guy.

Michael lived next door to me freshman year and we spent many hours together either in the architecture studio or out dancing. He introduced me to my first husband, and for that I will always be grateful. A good friend and a good soul. My deepest condolences to his family.

One of my memories of Michael was his bright smile, and his pleasing personality. He was always happy when I would see him. Michael was my consin. And I'm deeply sorry that he past. My thoughts and prayers are with his friends and family.

I fondly remember Michael during our college years, especially for his charm and his incredible gift of dancing. A bunch of us would go out to parties and have so much fun. He could light up a room with his moves and his smile. "Let's Groove", Michael!
